3. To do all possible to insure the comfort and convenience of the mis­sionary.
In conclusion we should like to express our deep appreciation to the Board
of World Missions and its executive officers for the interest they have shown and
the direction they have given again this past year. We also note the continued
self-sacrificing service rendered by our overseas personnel, those who in the
strictest sense represent us, and bespeak for them Divine guidance in their work,
protection from danger and continued good health.
Jesus has reminded us, "We must work the works of him that sent me, while
it is day; night comes, when no one can work." The darkness of godless com­munism
is slowly creeping over large parts of our world. Extreme nationalistic
movements are threatening the overthrow of democratic government in their
reaction against colonialism and imperialism. If Christianity is to survive these
revolutionary changes, a strong indigenous church must be built which will be
of, for and by the people of the land. This means sacrifice and effort on our part.
God grant that our church and our Conference will be equal to this challenge.
